i. ii. iii. Assume a demand curve is given as Qd = 25 - 5p where Qd is the quantity demanded of a good and P is the price of the good. The supply curve is given as Qs = 10p - 5, where Q is the quantity supplied. At what values of P and Q do these curves intersect? [ Now suppose at each price individuals demand five more units of output, that is the demand curve shifts to Qdd = 30 - 5p. At what values of P and Q does the new demand curve intersect the supply curve identified in part (i) State and explain three factors that can cause the demand curve to shift from Qd to Qdd.

ECON302 TPS2: Demand Suppose that Graham enjoys painting green people. He has very particular preferences and must have exactly 3 gallons of yellow paint for each 2 gallons of blue paint. Let Y be the number of gallons of yellow paint and B be the number of gallons of blue paint. Also, let PÅ be the price of blue paint. Suppose Graham has $20 to spend on paint. Also, the price of yellow paint is Py = $1 per gallon. a) Graph Graham's price consumption curve for the prices PB = $1, and PB = 2, PB = $4. Please put the number of gallons of B on the vertical axis and the number of gallons of Y on the horizontal axis. Be sure to label your graph carefully and accurately.
Suppose that the annual demand and supply curves for some good in a competitive market are QD = 26 – 2P and QS = −2 + 2P a: Solve for the equilibrium quantity and price.b: Neatly graph this market, showing the horizontal and vertical intercepts of the demand curve,the vertical intercept of the supply curve, and the equilibrium. Make sure to put quantity on the horizontalaxis.
Consider the market for pens. Suppose that new medical concerns regarding graphite absorption have put pressure on schools to reduce pencil use in favor of pens. Further, the price of plastic, a major input in the pen production process, has dropped sharply. On the following graph, labeled Scenario 1, indicate the effect these two events have on the demand for and supply of pens. Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther.

Using the supply and demand functions below, derive the demand and supply curves if Y=$55,000 and pc=$13. What is the equilibrium price and quantity of coffee? Part 2 The demand function for coffee is Q=8.5−p+0.01Y, where Q is the quantity of coffee in millions of pounds per year, p is the price of coffee in dollars per pound, and Y is the average annual household income in high-income countries in thousands of dollars. The coffee supply function is Q=9.6+0.5p−0.2pc, where pc is the price of cocoa in dollars per pound. Part 3 The equilibrium price of coffee is p=$enter your response here per pound and the equilibrium quantity is Q=enter your response here millions of pounds per year. (Enter your responses rounded to two decimal places.)
Suppose that the market demand for Turkey is given by: Q_(T)=2-8P_(T)+2P_(C)+0.0015I Where Q_(T) is annual quantity demanded of turkey in million pounds, P_(T) is the price of turkey per pound, P_(C) is price of chicken per pound, and I is the average household income in dollars per year. a. Find the annual quantity demanded of turkey if the price turkey is $2.00 per pound, price of chicken is $1.50 per pound and the annual household income is $30,000.
Suppose the demand function for avocados is Q=104-40p + 20p₁ +0.01Y, where p is the price of avocados, p, is the price of tomatoes, and Y is average income, and the supply function for avocados is where p, is the price of fertilizer. Suppose p = $0.80, Y = $4,000, and p = $0.40. What is the equilibrium price and quantity of avocados? The equilibrium price of avocados is and the equilibrium quantity is Q=58+15p -20pf, and the equilibrium quantity is p=$2 Q = 80 units. (Enter your responses rounded to two decimal places.) Suppose the government charges a $2.20 specific tax per avocado to be paid by consumers. With the tax, the equilibrium price of avocados is p=$ Q= units.
#10: The quantity demanded x (in units of a hundred) of the Mikado miniature cameras per week is related to the unit price p (in dollars) by p= -0.2x² + 80 and the quantity x (in units of a hundred) that the supplier is willing to make available in the market is related to the unit price p (in dollars) by p = 0.1x² + x + 40. If the market is set at the equilibrium price, find the consumers' surplus and the producers' surplus.
Suppose the demand curve is downward sloping, the supply curve is upward sloping, and the equilibrium quantity is 50 units. Show on a graph that the difference between the maximum buying price and minimum selling price is greater at 25 units than at 33 units.
Suppose that you, Julio, and Yusef constitute the market for CDs. Your demand for CDs is illustrated in the graph to the right (D₁), along with Julio's demand (D₂) and Yusef's demand (D3). Using the line drawing tool, construct the market demand curve for CDs. To do this, you will need to use three line segments labeled Dsegment 1, Dsegment 2, and Dsegment 3- Carefully follow the instructions above, and only draw the required objects. Price of CDs 30 D3 28- 26- 24- 22- 20-92 18+ 16- 14- 12- 10-01 8- 6- 4 2- 0- 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 22 24 26 28 30 Quantity of CDs
The city of Cedar Rapids has a large number of video poker arcades. The demand by patrons for the games (in thousands per week) is Qd = 180 - 4P and the supply is Qs = 2P - 30 where P is the price in cents charged to play a game. What is the equilibrium number (quantity) of games played? What is the equilibrium price? Draw a diagram depicting the equilibrium in this market.
Consider the market for hazelnuts. Use the supply and demand model to explain the effect of the following scenarios on the equilibrium price (P*) and the equilibrium quantity (Q*) of hazelnuts. In each of the following scenarios, does the supply curve shift? Does the demand curve shift? If there is a shift of the supply and/ or the demand curve, in what direction? Show graphically. Does the equilibrium price of hazelnuts increase or decrease? Does the equilibrium quantity of hazelnuts increase or decrease? 1. Adverse weather conditions destroy a large amount of hazelnut trees in Turkey, the leading hazelnut producer in the world. 2. The Italian company Ferrero makes a decision to increase the hazelnut content in its Nutella cocoa hazelnut spread. 3. New research finds that hazelnuts lower cholesterol and improve heart health more than people previously thought, and lots of people become aware of the results of the new study.
